West. MARCH 1984 In addition to Herman, Aussiefan Justin Ackroyd, the GUFF winner, will visit LACon II, Kaufman has learned. (From DASFAx 3/84) Olon Wiggins, chairman of DENVENTION I, the third World Science Fiction Convention, held in Denver in 1941, died February 4 at the Hospice of St. John in Lakewood, Colorado. He was 74. Wiggins was born in Texas in 1911 and moved to Denver with his family when he was a child. In the 1930s, Wiggins was editor and publisher of one of the earliest SF fanzines, THE ALCHEMIST. In 1940, Wiggins and another Denver fan, Lew Martin, traveled via boxcars to Chicago for the second Worldcon. Their offer to have the third Worldcon in Denver was accepted. Wiggins became inactive in fandom soon after Denvention I, but did appear on a fan panel at Denvention II in 1981. George Scithers, writing to the Postmaster of Philadelphia last February 28, requested postal inspectors to investigate bad checks sent from California in payment for Owlswick Press publications. Scithers’ letter, made available to the LASFS, read in part: "In November 1983 we received a check by mail from a Lee Smith, 1544% Pine Ave., Long Beach CA 90813 for books to be shipped to that address. About a week later we received a check by mail from a Darlene Stankey, 1101 E. Ventura B1J, Oxnard CA 90303 for books to be shipped to an address given as Los Angeles,1 CA, but which later turned out to be in Long Beach and the same as the address given by Lee Smith. When the orders were processed they appeared to be two different people." The check with each order was not honored by the bank.; J ■ ■ ’' ■ . > i ! j j . .. '■:; ; Scithers’ cprrespdhdence with a Lloyd’s Bank branch in Long Beach and a Bank of America branch in Oxnard verified that each check had been written on an account already closed. Bank of America’s letter of 12/30/83 said, "All checks we have received on this account are payable to mail order houses and signed by Linda Rarlene Stankey or Linda D. Benson. Mr. Benson also writes checks on this account." The amount of the B of A check was $59.95, and the Lloyd’s check was $53.75. One branch said the maker of the check had last had an account in 2/82, and yet the check sent to Owlswick had been made and submitted in November. Some Directors of LASFS- Inc. are sounding out club sentiment for a review of Smith’s membership in light of Scithers' recent experiences. SUNSET BOULEVARD: Evidently in an.effort to secure the title of Mr. Bicoastalj one of sf’s most famous pro artists paid another visit to LA in March. Pedestrians on the stretch of Sunset Boulevard two blocks west of the Cinerama Dome tend to be ladies who rent by the hour, bank tellers eagerly awaiting the 5 PM bus home, or derelicts. Stopped at the traffic light, I sensei there was something out of place When I saw a man in a suit. More peculiar: he was flanked by Sasha and Jacqui, whom I know from LASFS. Wait, I recognize that smile what’s Kelly Freas doihg on Sunset Boulevard? (Merely being in LA made sense -- Jacqui is his daughter1;) Now, the only time I ever see anybody I know on Sunset is when Doug Crepeau is i out to lunch from Science Fiction Consultants, hi^ representation firm striving to unite quality sf with Hollywood for an appropriate fee. ' Will Freas be joining Brunner as another SFC client? Or maybe he was just heading for the Lingerie club to listen to rockabilly...? i.; ' - : *• ‘ i.l 4 r. ■ : -r .- IS IT TRUE? Redheaded pro author and Southern fan Brad Linaweaver sojourned in LA at the end of 1983, trying to make his mark on the pocketbooks of local producers. Linaweaver wrote a "self-interview" about-his experiences, which appeared in the March ’84 ASHES. The interview included this exchange: "Q: Sounds like all this is a job for your agent. You have one, don't you? A: My East'Coast agent is strictly books and magazines. I'm free to secure the services of a West Coast representative for this other stuff. Q: How long do you think you’ll have to be out there before someone takes you on? A: Well, being a guest at Loscon 10 in Pasadena, and attending LASFS has already had an effect. I’ve been approached by a movie agent. Q: Did you sign on? A: No, I was warned off by people I respect. Better to wait on this sort of business. I’m going to do sdme spec scripts and try to make an impression before I sign anything. You can sign your life away out there before you even notice. Q: Do you believe , those stories about the sharks of Hollywood? A: Sure. But I'd rather be exploited on the West Coast than ignored in the East." Come on down! says the MC. 30 ° FILE 770:46 2 ’ March 1984 . ’ STUDY COMMITTEE DROP/FAILS? John. Mitchell of Chicago whispered into the ear of my phone answering machine "The committee that was appointed by WSFS last year to look into chang­ ing the site selection pro­ cedures /for Worldcons/ seems to be trying to run off the top of its head, if any, collectively.

  • New Alt.Cyberpunk FAQ
    New alt.cyberpunk FAQ Frank April 1998 This is version 4 of the alt.cyberpunk FAQ. Although previous FAQs have not been allocated version numbers, due the number of people now involved, I've taken the liberty to do so. Previous maintainers / editors and version numbers are given below : - Version 3: Erich Schneider - Version 2: Tim Oerting - Version 1: Andy Hawks I would also like to recognise and express my thanks to Jer and Stack for all their help and assistance in compiling this version of the FAQ. The vast number of the "answers" here should be prefixed with an "in my opinion". It would be ridiculous for me to claim to be an ultimate Cyberpunk authority. Contents 1. What is Cyberpunk, the Literary Movement ? 2. What is Cyberpunk, the Subculture ? 3. What is Cyberspace ? 4. Cyberpunk Literature 5. Magazines About Cyberpunk and Related Topics 6. Cyberpunk in Visual Media (Movies and TV) 7. Blade Runner 8. Cyberpunk Music / Dress / Aftershave 9. What is "PGP" ? 10. Agrippa : What and Where, is it ? 1. What is Cyberpunk, the Literary Movement ? Gardner Dozois, one of the editors of Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine during the early '80s, is generally acknowledged as the first person to popularize the term "Cyberpunk", when describing a body of literature. Dozois doesn't claim to have coined the term; he says he picked it up "on the street somewhere". It is probably no coincidence that Bruce Bethke wrote a short story titled "Cyberpunk" in 1980 and submitted it Asimov's mag, when Dozois may have been doing first readings, and got it published in Amazing in 1983, when Dozois was editor of1983 Year's Best SF and would be expected to be reading the major SF magazines.

(May 2012) Dana Nicole Sayre, B.A.; B.A, Fairmont State University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Judith Hamera Through a combination of personal interviews and participant-observation in three field sites – the Tim Miller workshop and performance of October 2010 and the student organizations Cepheid Variable and the GLBT Aggies – I argue that manifestations of utopian desire and performance circulate within and among marginalized groups on the Texas A&M University campus, undermining the heteronormative and monolithic utopia the university attempts to present. I participated in each night of rehearsal during the Tim Miller workshop, as well as the creation and performance of my own solo autobiographical monologue as a part of the ensemble. My participant-observation in Cepheid Variable and the GLBT Aggies was concurrent, consisting of attendance at both weekly organizational meetings and outside events sponsored by the organizations over two years.
